program Overview

Winter conditioning prioritizes indoor/dry land training. Practices are centered around weights, erging, running and biking. Our goal is to provide training tailored to each age group's needs. Younger athletes will focus on fundamentals and strength training, while older athletes will be dedicated to building up strength and endurance through weights and long erg sessions.

Winter season is all about consistent attendance, hard work, and dedication to preparation. The effort that rowers invest during the winter months makes them successful in achieving their goals during the spring season.

Cost: $350.00
